Petal Scarf
The most amazing scarf yet - cast on, work seed stitch, cast off, cast on, more seed stitch, etc, etc. Doesn’t look like much until you try it on - then, it’s magnificent!
I’ve knitted them with lots of different yarns, but my three favorites are Lang Yarns Mille Colori, Feza Yarns Alp Premier and Berroco Yarns Quest. Another idea is to use 3 different yarns, working one row of each - just how to do this is explained in the pattern.
This scarf uses approximately 160 to 210 yards of a worsted weight yarn, although any yarn will work.
Needles
US Size 10 (6mm) to Size 13 (9mm), or whatever size works best with your yarn - gauge doesn’t really matter - a tighter knit will have more body and won’t stretch as much, a looser knit will be more lacy and stretchy - it doesn’t matter!
I knit the model in Lang Yarns “Mille Colori”, 50% Wool, 50% Acrylic, 101 yards, 50 grams per skein - 2 skeins

Have Fun!
